Mr. Amar Babu gave insights about the initiatives taken by Lenovo:
Objective of Lenovo:
Key Note from CEO Lenovo : ( Sustainability for the Next Generation)
The company put-forth two major initiative that would support the term sustainability as
given below:
AGENDA 2020:
All vitality sources have some effect on our condition. Petroleum derivatives—coal, oil, and
gaseous petrol—do considerably more mischief than sustainable power sources by most
measures, including air and water contamination, harm to general wellbeing, natural life and
living space misfortune, water utilize, arrive utilize, and a worldwide temperature alteration
outflows. Be that as it may, sustainable sources, for example, wind, sunlight based,
geothermal, biomass, and hydropower additionally have natural effects, some of which are
huge. The correct kind and power of natural effects fluctuates relying upon the particular
innovation utilized, the geographic area, and various different elements. By understanding the
present and potential natural issues related with each sustainable power source, we can makes
moves to viably stay away from or limit these effects as they turn into a bigger segment of
our electric supply.
Initiative’s taken by Lenovo would reduce the adverse effects mentioned below:
Air poisons are substances that antagonistically influence nature by meddling with
atmosphere, the physiology of plants, creature species, whole biological communities, and
also with human property as agrarian harvests or man-made structures. We list atmosphere at
the highest priority on the rundown to mirror the way that worldwide environmental change
has been perceived as a standout amongst the most essential natural difficulties to be looked
by humankind in the 21st century. In this setting certain atmosphere driving specialists—the
most critical one being carbon dioxide—which generally cause no damage to living life
forms, ought to be added to the rundown of "exemplary" contaminations, alongside such
mixes as oxides of nitrogen or sulfur. Then again, atmosphere look into has connected certain
mixes since quite a while ago perceived as air contaminations (for example dark carbon) to
the warming of atmosphere, accordingly giving one more motivation to their control.
Mr. Sirish Singh gave insights about implementation and scope of AI & ML.
Critical areas where AI & ML are a scope for future prospects of Job:
The job criteria’s and the scope mentioned above give greater opportunities for the future.
Question 3: What are the sustainability initiatives undertaken by the government? What else
can be done?
1. Digital India
2. IAM – Identity and access management key initiative
3. DBT - Direct Benefit Transfer
4. PFMS – Public financial management function
5. E- Procurement
6. E- Publishing
India has played an important role in shaping the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Therefore, it is no surprise that the country’s national development goals are mirrored in the
SDGs. As such, India has been effectively committed to achieving the SDGs even before
they were fully crystallized. For example: Firstly : “Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas,” which
translates as “Collective Effort, Inclusive Growth” and has been popularized by Prime
Minister Narendra Modi, forms the cornerstone of India’s national development agenda. To
fast track this agenda, the Government of India has just released a draft Three-Year Action
Agenda covering years 2017-18 to 2019-20. In parallel, work is in advance stages on a 15-
Year Vision, which will also include a 7-year Strategy. Reflecting the country’s long-standing
federal tradition, these documents are being prepared with active participation of the States
(sub-national Governments). Secondly: A noteworthy example of a crosscutting initiative is
the Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY) which is the world’s largest financial
inclusion programme. By leveraging PMJDY, Aadhaar (biometric identity system) and
mobile telephony, the Government has disbursed a cumulative amount of INR 1.62 trillion
(USD 25 billion) to 329 million beneficiaries through Direct Benefit Transfers.1 This has
helped to significantly enhance the efficiency of Government programmes.
Question 4: How can Technology be further leveraged for sustainability initiatives for the
Planet ?
SMART BUILDINGS
Structures that aren’t associated are similar structures they were decades back. They
have given the fundamentals: protect, temperature control and security at a similar
productivity level for quite a long time. In any case, more up to date structures, or more
seasoned structures that have been changed over to keen structures, are continually
evolving. They are living beings associated with a system with wise and versatile
software. At the most principal level, keen structures make inhabitants more gainful
with lighting, warm solace, air quality, physical security, sanitation and more at bring
down expenses and natural effect than structures that are not associated. Keen places
of business, social insurance offices, doctor’s facilities, instructive offices, stadiums
and numerous different sorts of brilliant structures exist far and wide. Navigant
Research evaluates that the keen building innovation market will create worldwide
income of $8.5 billion out of 2020, up from $4.7 billion out of 2016, developing at a
compound yearly development rate of 15.9% over the conjecture time frame.
ALTERNATIVE POWER SOURCES
As new technical advancements keep on offering new types of spotless and green
power, the capacity to live with less has turned into a reality. Sun based, wind,
geothermal, and hydro methods for control make it conceivable to live off the network,
where reliance on normal sorts of intensity and vitality replaces the reliance on more
customary power frameworks. Regardless of whether you’re living in a remote region
or keen on vitality investment funds, characteristic power source developments are
accessible in various structures.
Solar Power
Wind Power
Biomass
Tidal Power
Geothermal
Regular, the world produces carbon dioxide that is discharged to the world's air
and which will at present be there in one hundred years’ time. This expanded substance
of Carbon Dioxide builds the glow of our planet and is the primary driver of the
purported. An Earth-wide temperature boost Effect. One response to a worldwide
temperature alteration is to supplant and retrofit current advances with choices that
have tantamount or better execution, yet don’t produce carbon dioxide. We call this
Alternate vitality By 2050, 33% of the worlds vitality should originate from sun
oriented, wind, and other sustainable assets. Who says? English Petroleum and Royal
Dutch Shell, two of the world’s biggest oil organizations. Environmental change,
populace development, and petroleum derivative exhaustion imply that renewable
should assume a greater part later on than they do today. Elective vitality alludes to
vitality sources that have no undesired outcomes such for instance petroleum products
or atomic vitality. Elective vitality sources are inexhaustible and are believed to be free
vitality sources. They all have bring down carbon outflows, contrasted with traditional
vitality sources. These incorporate Biomass Energy, Wind Energy, Solar Energy,
Geothermal Energy, Hydroelectric Energy sources. Joined with the utilization of
reusing, the utilization of clean elective energies, for example, the home utilization of
sun oriented power frameworks will help guarantee man’s survival into the 21st
century and past.
CLEAN AGRICULTURE
The Clean Agriculture Program means to meet shoppers requests for nourishment
created mindfully with negligible compound data sources. It depends on checking
produce for substance deposits, creating methods for limiting synthetic utilize and
advancing protected and mindful utilize. While the utilization of ranch synthetic
concoctions is a necessary piece of economical homestead rehearses, they should be
utilized so that unsatisfactory build-ups in deliver and the earth are stayed away from.
